Police Looking for Two Suspects in Anti-gay Hate Crime Near UCLA

by Karen Ocamb on January 21, 2013

UCLA police are looking for two men suspected of threatening a student near the UCLA campus in Westwood early Friday morning, Jan. 18. This is from KABC TV:

Investigators said a student was walking in the 400 block of S. Gayley Avenue around 1:30 a.m. Friday when a dark-colored car pulled up. Two men got out and approached the student. One of them allegedly threatened the victim with a knife and made anti-gay slurs.

The suspects got back in their car and left the scene. The victim sustained minor scratches and bruises.

One suspect was described as a white man in his mid to late 20s, about 5-foot-9, around 165 pounds with a shaved head and brown eyes. The other suspect was described as a Hispanic man also in his mid to late 20s, about 6-foot-4,300 pounds with long black hair.

If you have any information, please call UCLA police at: 310-825-1491.
